'Public Finance': "Barnet not so fair?" (gettit?)

Link to web site

"An internal audit report has highlighted concerns over procurement processes at the London Borough of Barnet. This raises questions about the council’s general outsourcing proposals and also the government’s wider privatisation plans.

"Thanks to Mrs Angry, Mr Mustard and Mr Reasonable – the inveterate bloggers of the ‘Broken Barnet’ website [sic] – the sorry state of Barnet’s procurement and monitoring processes has been laid bare.

"The findings of the internal audit report seemingly have wider implications than the MetPro contract alone. There appears to be a systemic failure to ensure that procurement processes in Barnet are:
  • lawful,
  • transparent,
  • compliant with EU procurement rules,
  • understood by managers, and
  • generally followed.
